The much-awaited IPL 2020 is only 7 days away and the excitement of fans is soaring with every passing day. The thirteenth edition of the IPL, after many delays, is finally going to roll out on September 19th in the UAE.

Ahead of the T20 extravaganza, several experts have already started dishing out their predictions along with picking out their favourite players. Cricketer-turned-commentator Aakash Chopra has also been dishing out his opinions over social media.

Chopra has now revealed the flaws of David Warner-led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in his latest YouTube video. While doing the SWOT analysis of the Hyderabad franchise, Chopra pointed out that the side is without a proper finisher in their batting line. Despite being equipped with a robust top order, SRH don’t have a finisher, according to Chopra.

Moreover, Chopra highlighted that SRH can’t place all their main overseas players David Warner, Jonny Bairstow, Kane Williamson in their Playing XI. To accommodate Mohammad Nabi and Rashid Khan, the Orange Army will have to adjust their starting squad.

The lack of a finisher is a problem for SRH: Aakash Chopra

“The lack of a finisher is a problem for this team because you have Warner, Bairstow, Williamson and Manish Pandey in the top order. And all four of them will not play because if all three of Warner, Bairstow and Williamson play, then only one out of Rashid and Nabi can play,” Chopra said.

Along with Manish Pandey SRH have impressive names like Vijay Shankar, Virat Singh, Priyam Garg in their batting arsenal. However, Chopra believes that all young guns can’t be trusted to pull off the finisher’s role efficiently.

“After Manish Pandey they have Vijay Shankar, Virat Singh, Priyam Garg – all Indian names and none of them is a big name who could prove to be trusted finisher. So, they are a top-heavy side but do not have much depth in their batting order,” Chopra further said.

Chopra also expressed that SRH have lately lost the old shine of their bowling line-up. David Warner and his troops will commence their IPL 2020 campaign by locking horns with Royal Challengers Bangalore on 21st September. Ahead of their IPL 2020 voyage, Chopra suggested SRH to find out the best Playing XI in order to clinch this year’s title.

They will even want to play Billy Stanlake because he has pace and they have Mitchell Marsh as well who is an all-rounder. But if those two play, what will happen to Nabi and Rashid and how will you play Kane Williamson. So deciding the right combination would be the biggest threat for them,” concluded Chopra.
